On "Comedy 42," Um, Jennifer? leans into the messy, confusing, and often hilarious realities of being human. The track pairs driving indie rock with the band's trademark wit, finding humor in the kinds of moments that usually keep you up at night. Equal parts catchy and cathartic, "Comedy 42" is a reminder that sometimes the best way through life's chaos is to laugh at it.


Here's what Fig has to say about the song: "Comedy 42" is about a time when being asleep felt better than being awake; when no one could possibly know how I felt, least of all, me. In terms of sound, I played Comedy 42 for my friend and he said it sounds like The Transgender Beach Boys (so, the Beach Boys) which feels pretty accurate to me. It’s a sunny song about a dark time in my life and I hope it serves as a reminder that connection (and sometimes medication) is the only way through.
